Too Much Mucus,,, No cure in the 'Medical Industry'

Especially after eating I get a Post Nasal Drip....
Been through two ENT's,,, Too Many GP's and taken to Hospital 3 times in 2008!
The Hospitals do bugger all! As has the medication that any one percribed me.
I'm not one of those try it for a week and drop it. I took Acid Reflux pills for 8 months non stop... Did bugger all!
The only things that help and helped alot was ye old Vicks inhaling.... and doing the nebulizer...
COughing all day most of the time.. Antibiotics tried them twice with no effect!
BUT; when my Doctor said that wehave exhusted all possible means, he told me that he was reluctant as its against his practise to recomend any Natural Doctors, but he couldn't stand prescribing me things that did not help at all. He said to Try an Iridologist and or Chinese Medicine. I did!! The results were amazing!
For over a year Many types of Doctors and emergency ward doc's did not have a clue, or could they help in any way.... So, I found a Doc Qualified in Iridology, CHinese Med and Holistic Med !! And guess what she was also an X-Practise MD, she said she just knew too much about the Pharma companies and couldn't continue down that road.... I didn't dig any further, but wasn't suprised with all the deaths you hear relating to Meds.  
She gave me a few test,, e.g. gave me a drink and then all my symptoms started!! Man, that was tough.. she sat there and watched me taking notes.. then gave me another drink and it stopped all the symptoms... She ased a few basic life questions, and diet questions,, then did the Iridology thing on me....
No problem she said, I'll be back with your Herbal Med..
I was driving home still not feeling good and though why not I'll take it now while driving,, and within the first couple of sips and Mucus symptoms started to stop!! Man, if that was the Placebo effect! That was pretty powerful and I think it wasn't.
I was given something that cured me in a matter of hours.. yet couldn't be cured within 1 year by many Doc's.
If there is anyone out there who has my problem too,, excessive white sticky mucus, post nasal and cough,,, DO NOT GOTO YOUR GP PLEASE! You'll save money by going Alternative and I hear its pretty rare for a practising Doc to refer you to Alternative med! Mine did and I went back and secretly thanked him big time! He said he wasn't surprised at my results and said he understand if I'm angry with the Med Industry.
I've also been told, and am now trialing Hydrogen Peroxide (up to my 5th day, and its going well),,, I'm looking to now cure my Asthma.
My GP has given me the Confidence (unwantingly) to go out and treat yourself naturaly... I never would have thought if my GP didn't recomend this action, I don't know where I would be today after so many Ambulance rides,,, and for WHAT REASON ? To be sent home in the same condition.
So my qustion is if My GP can eventually say this has any one else had any simular experiences? (Either with your GP saying to head off to the Alternative pool or my SYmptoms and have not had help from the Med Industry).

Hi rhunt47 sorry to hear about your suffering. I haveing only been suffering for too years and it does get you down. Im thinking of trying chinese herbal medicine.The detox way also makes a lot of sense. The immune system seems to be involved,and the body seems to be overloaded. It is difficult when the medical profession does not want to know. there are doctor out there that do deal with natural therapies that assist the body in the healing process. unforunatly your average medically trained doctors are only allowed to prescibe what the establihment allows them to.and this seems to be dictated by the drug companies.Doctors that go against the establishment can be stopped from practicing.So most will not stick their necks out.I hope you feel better sone you have been suffering along time. Any new ideas I can come up with i will post.I will not stop triring to find a solution.Luck to you all. Hotchillypeper

Thanks for all the information will have to read over it again.
I have been suffering from this for over 10 years.  No help from anyone, and I have tried herbs, had all the test done in the world.  Including lung, stomach, nose and throat. Been on all the acid meds and nose sprays and allergy meds.  Have a bag daily that I cough mucus in all day long.  I have had two open heart surgeries and the last one I choked so bad I think I died and came back, at least my med records says the resusitated me. One day I told my cardiologist about this and he told me about Benzonatate (tessalon pearls).  I tried them and they worked, then it started up again.  But after I got out of the hospital and almost opened my chest back up from the coughing I decided to try it again.  Well this time it worked, and I've been on them every since.  It stop the coughing, but the mucous still comes up.  What it does is take off the stress of the coughing and you don't choke off of the mucous.  I started taking 200mg three times daily and had to go down to 200 mg twice daily.  It helps but the problem is still here.  But I was really bad before to the point where I was ready to give up on life.  So this helps a lot I guess. Now I'm suffering with numerous sinus infections and wonder if it's from taking the Benzonate.

Found a book called Arnold Ehret's Mucus Free Diet System. German guy from before the second world war who researched this topic to death because it nearly killed him. He did all of the stuff everyone is suggesting with great success. It cost him several years and a fortune to find all of this out before the internet. When he had recovered he found that he kept sliding back into the problem over and over again and had to go through several rounds of treatment! Sound familiar?

He eventually ran a spa and sanitorium for people with mucus related illnesses. Wild eh? He made it clear that all of the good stuff that everyone has been talking about on this forum should be done more or less as need and experience dictates. His own experience was that there are many ways to cause the problem of too much mucus. It can form in response to many irritations, therefore different solutions to the mucus will make sense accordingly. A great misunderstanding can often happen when a treatment a first gets good results and then symptoms worsen drastically, so they quit because they believe that the solution was the wrong one. However its his contention that the curing process releases all kinds of historic junk and irritants which can make the symptoms worse. It might make sense to back off for a while and try anothr piece of the puzzle. We want a straight up answer in our culture and here are all these extra things and multifacets to deal with. How do we deal with this release of waste and the worsening symptoms?

Arnold believed that the underlying root of the problem of too much mucus was that the body could not clear its self of the daily irritants within its system fast enough. An illness, allergy or healing crisis would put some peoples internal sanitary system into overload quite easily. His thesis was that since we use the same system to take in nourishment as we do to rid ourselves of internal waste a conflict can of use and timing in the system can lead to back ups into the tissues. Gross! So as long as we keep the alimentary canal which is both our digestive and waste track busy with taking in food all of the time it won't be able to deal with any special problems of eliminating waste. He developed a very comprehensive fasting method to allow the digestive system to shut down and the eliminations system to operate at full capacity. He was very careful to talk about dangerous forms of fasting as well.

He used the term dross meaning not poison but just useless extraneous stuff in the corners, basement and attic of your body that your body has to slow down to avoid tripping over. Think of it like this; every cell in the body has to exchange food, waste and product through a membrane to work effectively. The cell walls may become like dirty windows and blocked doors. The cells then can not produce enzymes, control their contractions, filter the blood, clean themselves or exchange oxygen. A hundred symptoms of wildly different diseases appear.

So anyway, its not about how many times your bowels eliminate a day as much as figuring out if all of the lymph ducts, interstitial spaces between cells and cell walls can pass the junk down the line to the bowel, skin, lungs etc. The whole concept is about not going all out all of the time like we do in North America. Giving time to rest and recover. But also, it is about the fact that nearly none of us know how to rest and recover! How many of us would know to stop eating, take a couple of days off work, take walks, have a sauna or two, drink lots of water, tea, read a book, meditate and fast?

Hi Angus nice to have you back on the site. I have been doing some research myself.My own expereince of the medical proffesssion leads me to believe that they are all in the pockets of the drug companies.my own GP said if I wanted to find out what was wrong with me I sould go to Harvard  {you know the big hospital in America. I am trying coconut oil and garlic which does thin the mucus.

My own problems started after I took Zantac for indigestion. I now understand that blocking the acid in the stomach creates an ideal envirnment for fungus overgrowth.Since 70% of the immune system resides in the gut you can imagine the chaos.Its like gut ferementation with a lowered immunity.

Do you know whether oxy silver is the same ascolloidal silver?  

Keep in touch and good luck to all of you out there suffering dont give up
